VODs from Paul's side

Tips

  • 0

    Jin's d+2 is a common low poke that is i22 and -14 on block; Paul can punish this consistently with his i14 df+1,1 or even a well-timed ws2 launcher.

  • 0

    Jin's Zenshin stance transitions can be interrupted; for example, if he uses f+4~F, he is at -1, allowing Paul's i12 d+1+2 shoulder to beat most follow-ups.

  • 0

    Use Paul's df+2 to evade Jin's high pressure; it has high evasion and launches for a full combo on hit, though it is -8 on block.

  • 0

    Be careful with Phoenix Smasher (CS.2) at the wall; if Jin blocks it, the -17 recovery usually means you will lose the round to his wall combo punish.

  • 0

    Paul's SWA.2 is an i15 Heat Engager that is only -9 on block, making it a safe way to close the gap against Jin's keep-out tools like f+4.

  • 0

    Jin's 1,2,1 string is -16 on block; if you block the final mid hit, punish immediately with uf+3,4 for a full launch.

  • 0

    If Jin uses his Power Stance (db+1+2), it is -11 at its fastest recovery; use Paul's i10 jab strings (1,2) to keep him honest.

  • 0

    Paul's f+1+2 (Hammer of the Gods) is +3c on block and deals chip damage, which is excellent for wearing down Jin's health when he plays defensively.
